Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 6 The Four Golden Flowers of Lao Niu's House
The names chosen by Niu Xiaoqiang's four older sisters are very distinctive. They are Niu Chunxiang, Niu Xiaxiang, Niu Qiuxiang, and Niu Dongxiang from oldest to youngest. The names of the four coincide with the four seasons of the previous year.

If their names were chosen according to their seniority, there should be a small character in the middle of their names like Niu Xiaoqiang.Since Niu Dazhuang didn't like daughters, he didn't put the four into the family's generational system, but named them according to the season of their birth.

Not to mention, in this way, the names of the four daughters became much more pleasant, and it also saved a lot of trouble. Otherwise, they would be named according to their seniority. With Niu Dazhuang's educational level, which has not graduated from elementary school, he would probably think about it.

As the saying goes, elder brothers are like fathers, and eldest daughters are like mothers. Niu Chunxiang loves the youngest brother very much. Although Niu Xiaoqiang is stupid, he can still tell the difference between good and bad. I'm still, okay."

Seeing the tanned and rough skin of the elder sister due to working all the year round, Niu Xiaoqiang handed the straw hat back to the elder sister in a sensible way: "I'm not hot, this, this straw hat should be worn by the elder sister."

Niu Chunxiang quickly declined: "Eldest sister is not hot, you should wear it."

As soon as Niu Chunxiang finished speaking, the fourth sister Niu Dongxiang snorted angrily: "If the old man smokes less than two packs of cigarettes, do we still need to give way for a straw hat?"

Among the four sisters, Niu Dongxiang is the most aggressive and motivated.Since she was a child, she determined to study hard and change her destiny through knowledge.Although her grades have always been ranked first in the grade, this performance has not been recognized by Niu Dazhuang. He is patriarchal and strongly opposes his daughter's study. The reason is simple: "Why do girls study so many books at home? No matter how good it is, you won’t be from another family in the future?”

Niu Dongxiang has a lot of opinions on her father because of her studies, and she always calls Niu Dazhuang an old man in private, showing no respect at all.In order to be able to leave the small mountain village, she had a long-term struggle with her father. When the trouble was the worst, she even threatened to commit suicide by drinking pesticide, which frightened the whole family.

In the end, Niu Dongxiang won the struggle, finished elementary school and junior high school steadily, and then was admitted to the key high school in the county with excellent results. She was already a sophomore this year (there was no senior year at that time), and she had one month to take the college entrance examination. up.

Even at the critical juncture of the college entrance examination, Niu Dongxiang has to help the family with farm work every time she returns home.In order to get good grades in the exam, Niu Dongxiang would bring her textbooks every time she went to work in the fields, and took the time to review while working.Niu Xiaoqiang admires her hard work and hard work.

The second sister, Niu Xiaxiang, immediately echoed what the younger sister said: "My younger sister is right. Dad is the most generous to himself and the eldest brother, but he is stingy to us. If he smokes less cigarettes, I, the eldest sister and the third sister It’s not like dropping out of school before finishing elementary school.”

Niu Xiaxiang is currently working in a cotton spinning factory. Originally, she could not get in because of her education background. Thanks to the help of her fourth uncle, she found a good job for her.

It is midsummer now, the weather is very hot, and the working environment of the cotton spinning factory is very closed, so the workers can't bear it. Every summer, the leaders of the factory will give the workers half a month of summer vacation.

In the past, Niu Xiaxiang was very obedient and honest, and never dared to speak ill of her father behind his back.But since seeing the world outside, she has gradually become dissatisfied with her father, and she is also very dissatisfied with her favorite brother.

The third sister, Niu Qiuxiang, works as a laborer in the canteen of the technical school in the town, helping the chef chop vegetables and do odd jobs.To be honest, Niu Qiuxiang is the smartest person among the four sisters, but in order to give the younger sister Niu Dongxiang a chance to get out of the mountains, Niu Qiuxiang voluntarily dropped out of school, so Niu Dongxiang is most grateful to her. Relationships are also the best.

After hearing what the two sisters said, Niu Qiuxiang wiped his sweat and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, don't blame father and brother, as long as we work hard, we may not be fruitless in the future."

Mother Sun Mei likes the virtuous and sensible third daughter the most. When she heard this, she smiled and nodded: "The third girl is right, as long as we work hard, the days will definitely get better."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Niu Xiaoqiang, and sighed, "It's nothing else. What I'm most worried about is the youngest. It will be a problem for him to marry a wife in the future. When I'm old, what will he do."

Sun Mei is a typical loving mother with a docile personality, otherwise she would not have lived with the irritable Niu Dazhuang for so many years.Thinking that her youngest son will be left alone when she gets old, Sun Mei feels uncomfortable.

The eldest daughter, Niu Chunxiang, hurriedly comforted her: "Mother, if it really doesn't work, you can agree to the marriage with Wang Laizi's family, so that the little brother will be taken care of in the future."

Cripple Wang lives in Dawang Village, more than 30 miles away. He is disabled and later passed his disability on to his son.

Wang Laizi has a son and a daughter. Because the son was born with a disability, he couldn't find a wife in his twenties.After hearing about Niu Dazhuang's family situation, Wang Zizi took the initiative to come to propose marriage, promising that as long as Niu Dazhuang married one of the four daughters to his son, he would betroth his only daughter to Niu Xiaoqiang. It can all be solved.

In rural areas, this practice is called "carrying on shoulders".Both parties get what they need, and no one is at a disadvantage, so no one thinks there is anything wrong with doing so.

As soon as Niu Chunxiang finished speaking, Niu Dongxiang objected passionately: "Elder sister, why are you humiliating yourself? Wang Zizi's son is not a good thing, he is a lazy bastard. If you marry him, you will spend the rest of your life But it's all ruined!"

Rural people don't discriminate against disabled people, but they look down on lazy guys. Niu Xiaxiang, who has seen the world, immediately agrees when she hears this: "Yaomei is right, if Wang Laizi's son is only disabled, it's nothing, but But he just doesn't study well, and eats and is lazy all day long. If you marry him, how will you live your life in the future? Sister, you are not ugly, and you have no problem finding a good wife. If you really can't, I can work in the factory Let me introduce someone to you, the regular workers in our factory are very popular, and the monthly salary can be more than 30 yuan, if you marry a regular worker, from now on, you will choose the hot and spicy ones!"

Niu Xiaxiang is more or less showing off, she is currently the best one among the four sisters, and will be converted from an apprentice to a regular worker in the second half of the year.The reason why she spoke so well about regular workers was mainly to show her sense of superiority.
